Help:Page size
From WikiGlide
Finding the size of the wikitext of a page can only be done indirectly:
- search; use suitable search terms to get few other results; e.g. for Help:Variable one can use the search terms:
- de Wikipedia Variablen zh Help 变量
- which conveniently gives no other results, and shows that the size is, at the time of this writing, "0.8KB (142 words)".
- for a page in the main namespace, also Special:Shortpages and Special:Longpages can be used.
- the text can also be copied in a local editor and saved; note that small deviations can be due to newline taking one or two bytes.
Image size
The size of an image or other uploaded file is shown in
- the entry of the image history
- Special:Imagelist
- Special:Newimages
- on the category pages of the categories that contain the image.
